Read the sentences from the Newsela article, "First All-Female Spacewalk Will Take Place During Women's History Month." Anne McC
lain and Christina Koch will venture out together about 240 miles above the Earth and make history. To add to the significance of their mission, the spacewalk will take place during Women's History Month. What is the meaning of significance?
When the text says "To add to the significance of their mission" the text is referring to the addition of importance that the female walk in space will receive, since it will be held in the month of women, as it shows that women have reached places never imagined.
We can reach this conclusion, because the word "significance" refers to something very important, full of meaning and importance.
The sentence I would choose is: "He was looking down at his outstretched hands as he talked". To me, it implies that he cannot look into the eyes of the person he is speaking to, as if he doesn't feel he is worthy.
